All of you lucky beta soldiers that were recruited to participate in the engagement of bug scouting and reporting, please report to the front office to be relieved of duty. That’s right kids, as of 6 p.m. CET, November 14, 2008, the free-to-play shooter being published by Electronics Arts and developed by Digital Illusions have shut down their closed beta to “focus on polishing up the backend,” according to a post on the game’s official site.

We have received lots of great feedback from our beta testers. So much so that we are now ready to enter our next phase. On Friday evening (6pm CET) we will be closing down the current Closed Beta and moving our focus to polishing the backend. So for a while there will be no closed beta available to play. We expect to re-open the beta early next year.

Battlefield Heroes is a multiplayer online shooter that is planned to gain support from micro-transactions the same way a lot of free to play MMOs that you normally see offered on websites are.

The game’s look is that of the cartoonish nature popularized by Valve’s Team Fortress 2. For players outside of the closed beta, this can only be regarded as good news as the game is approaching it’s final stages before release.
